7.6 Expressions, Equations, and Inequalities · Lesson 15: Efficiently Solving InequalitiesLesson plan
Learning goals: Teacher Facing Compare and contrast (orally) solutions to equations and solutions to inequalities. Draw and label a graph on the number line that represents all the solutions to an inequality. Generalize (orally) that you can solve an inequality of the form $px+q \gt r$ or $px+q \lt r$ by solving the equation $px+q=r$ and then testing a value to determine the direction of the inequality in the solution.
